While it hasn't been made product of conversation in the NBA just yet, I personally think it is only a matter of time before Anthony Davis wants out of New Orleans because they just cannot win and they aren't getting any better. New Orleans could look to move him for solid pieces and picks to help reset and boost their future potential. Here is my proposed trade:

Pacers Get:
- Anthony Davis from New Orleans
- Will Barton and Wilson Chandler from Denver

Pelicans Get:
- Thaddeus Young, Monte Ellis 2017 and 2019 First Round Picks from Indiana
- Danilo Gallinari from Denver

Nuggets
- Al Jefferson, Rodney Stuckey and 2018 Second Round Pick from Indiana
- Tyreke Evans from New Orleans

Lineups

Pacers
PG: Jeff Teague, Aaron Brooks, Joe Young
SG: CJ Miles, Will Barton
SF: Paul George, Wilson Chandler, Georges Niang, Glenn Robinson
PF: Anthony Davis, Lavoy Allen, Rakeem Christmas
C: Myles Turner, Kevin Seraphin

Pelicans
PG: Tim Frazier, Langston Galloway, Jrue Holiday (OUT indefinatley)
SG: Monte Ellis, Buddy Hield, E'twan Moore, Lance Stephenson
SF: Danilo Gallinari, Solomon Hill, Quincy Pondexter
PF: Thaddeus Young, Terrence Jones, Dante Cunningham, Cheick Diallo
C: Omer Asik, Alexi Ajinca

Nuggets
PG: Emmanuel Mudiay, Jameer Nelson
SG: Gary Harris, Jamal Murray, Malik Beasley
SF: Tyreke Evans, Mike Miller
PF: Jusif Nurkic, Kenneth Faried, Darrell Arthur, Juancho Hernangomez
C: Nikola Jokic, Al Jefferson, Jarnell Stokes

Thoughts?
Constructive criticism only please.

For NOP it is too early to even think about that trade. Mid season they will probably do some minor trades (I think thay will trade some of those players - T. Evans, Ajinca, Cunningham, Pondexter) and maybe have some better fitting role players. Thay will surely hope J. Holiday will be back at this point and that they can resign him.

That's not in the same ballpark as getting Davis. And somehow you're getting nice players from Denver too.

Boston would offer both nets picks along with a few players for Davis, you have to beat that.

Also, Davis is locked in for another 5 years (he's 4 games into his new contract! ) He can get mad, bit I don't think he really can force his way out. I don't see any trade that makes NO better in the short or long term.

I stopped reading once the pacers got Davis AND other key players and didn't give up George or turner.

If you are going to be a homer, at least try and hide it.

That's way too good for Indiana no way the get AD without giving up Myles Turner.

Please stop with the AD for mid-level Player package trades. They are not going to happen.

This does nothing for the logjam at f/ c for the nuggs it makes it worse. The nuggs need a consolidation trade.
